Close Quarters Shotgun Technique
This video demonstrates a close-quarters shotgun technique called "short stocking," designed to improve maneuverability in tight spaces, particularly for home defense. The technique is presented as being utilized by law enforcement entry teams and is equally applicable to armed citizens. Various shotguns are featured, including a Remington 870 (off-the-shelf and modified with a Magpul stock and Surefire/Malkoff light), a Beretta 1301 Tactical (with Aimpoint, Magpul furniture, and Aridus accessories), and a Wilson Combat Rob Haught Special. The discussion covers the practical challenges of long-barreled shotguns in confined areas and presents short stocking as a solution.
